06 November, 2006 Upcoming Movies: Casino Royale

Casino Royale
Director: Martin Campbell
Stars: Daniel Craig, Eva Green, Judi Dench (Full Cast)
Studio: 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment

The Plot: After earning his license to kill, MI6 dispatches James Bond (Craig) to Madagascar to track a terrorist. The spy soon expands his search to include an entire terrorist cell, tipping off an adventure that leads him into a Montenegro casino, where his organization backs him in a marathon game against Le Chiffre (Mads Mikkelsen), a banker to international terrorist organizations.

THE BUZZ: After an exhaustive, dramatic, bordering-on-annoying search for the new Bond, the announcement of Daniel Craig as the successor to Pierce Brosnan was rather ... anticlimactic. Craig of course made matters worse for himself by arriving for the movie's worldwide press day via military boat ... wearing a life preserver. However, his smoldering physicality seems to be winning over disgruntled fans one-by-one as opening day draws near, so maybe it's not solely up to director Martin Campbell to re-engage the franchise yet again. Regarding the casting of Royale's Bond girl, Vesper Lynd -- Eva Green wasn't on any fan's mind as the potential pick (Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie reportedly vied for the role), and that's just the kind of surprise we're hoping the movie itself offers.
